I guess you could, but if you can get your bridge hand to do the job then do it, may take some practice. Now if you have really small hands, you may need a bridge to get the elevation required for this shot.
Good Luck

This shot is fun, but takes a little practice. First hit your cue ball into the rail not to hard and see if you can get it to jump back over a ball, then work on your accuracy. Good luck and have fun, remember to shoot a little above center and elevate slightly, about 1 foot from the rail –

on your and loads of pro on tv pool players, on there cue theres a little chunky bit and its lighter coloured on the cue, just before the the screw on bit with connects the 2 piece cue, what is the chunky bit and how can i get 1?

Yes, sometimes I like to “Spear” the cue ball, I get more cue elevation and it’s easier to jump at close range. If I really want to control the cue ball I will stroke the cue ball with normal stroke and with less elevation, maybe on my next “Jump” video I will explain more… thanks for watching Dean’s Pool Tips

Check your Stroke, this happens because you are not hittin center on the cue ball also check the elevation of your cue, don’t be to jacked up… meaning lower the back end a little, see if this helps, again it’s all in your stroke, keep it straight.
Good Luck….
